In this video I demonstrate how I make Poultney & Trimble style foil-wrapped cartridges for the Smith Carbine.

The bullets were cast from a Smith carbine bullet mold by Eras Gone Bullet Molds: www.erasgonebullets.com/

The information used in this video came from a video by Balázs Németh of CapandBall.com which can be seen here:
